I got chance to hit the Sportsman show in Portland Oregon and made a vid showing some awesome boats! I had to wipe the drool off my face a few times, but hey, its cool to dream once in a while:)
Hello guys and gals! Its been a while since I've posted here. Someone reminded me the other day about this section of the forum I had totally forgotten about (my bad:). Anyway, I just started a new project on my Holiday "salmon boat", replacing the rotted flooring. I made a video showing the...
Now that we are in the midst of springer season, daily reports are in order;). This one has a sneak peek of the last salmon I caught including the take down!
This was a fun experiment that really taught me a lot. I was a firm believer in curing your herring, but not so much after doing this. I will still continue to cure, but not all of it!:)
Hello guys. Ive been posting a few videos in the fishing section, but thought this video is probably better off over here. So here is my boat that I use to catch my fish. I love it. Its small, but catches the fish and crab. Enjoy!
After the short spring salmon run season ended, they gave us one more day on a Saturday. This video is a follow up to my other how to video. We did catch a fish, but had to let it go:/
Out fishing on anchor last Sunday and when I started the motor I heard a pop. Spark plug blew out. I plan to purchase a kit to re thread the hole. Is this pretty straight forward or is there something to watch out for? I’ve only heard of helicoils and never used one. This is on a 1973 25hp...
Hello guys. Just finished this tutorial video on basic trolling setups for salmon. This video will show you the basics of flashers, droppers, spinners, leaders, and bait, while keeping it frugal. I hope you enjoy.
I picked up this bait board on sale and got it installed today. The install went fine for the most part, but I did find the extender a bit odd as you will see in the video. I believe this was originally designed for kayaks, but works great on smaller boats like mine. I've even heard of some...
I finally took my drone out fishing the other day and ended up getting some really cool shots. We’re fishing for spring chinook on the Willamette River in Oregon City. I just put a Tohatsu 5 hp kicker on a few weeks ago and love it! I was running a 73 9.5 hp rude and thing ran great. It also...
I purchased a used Tohatsu 5hp, 2012 model, last weekend. The gentlemen I purchased it from told me it ran fine and that it was pulled off his fathers boat that had recently passed. Motor sat for 1-1/2 years I was told. I ask the gent to start it for me to make sure everything was on the up...
Hello guys. I'm new here and this is my first post.
I have a 1973 Starcraft with a 1973 25 hp and a 1973 9.5 hp, both Evinrudes. Lots of fun over the past 3 months with this boat and the family. We use it for fishing and crabbing.
About 3 weeks ago I was in the bay crabbing and ran aground...
